Default Herne Hill - Saturday and Sunday this weekend

Just a quick note about two events at Herne Hill velodrome in SE London this weekend.

Friends of Herne Hill Velodrome are having an Open Afternoon on Saturday 4th, 1-4pm There'll be a
chance to borrow a track bike and ride the track. With full training for those who haven't ridden it
before. �5 covers those costs if you want to ride the tracki, otherwise it is free. There'll also
be roller racing and lots of information about plans to save and modernise the velodrome. This is
the perfect opportunity to see and use the place, and get more involved if you want to.

There's a feeder ride from Cutty Sark in Greenwich starting 11am.

On Sunday 5th the Ride of the Falling Leaves starts/ends at Herne Hill. This is a deliberately tough
hilly tour of the North Downs organised by Mosquito Bikes in aid of the Lavendar Trust cancer
charity. 70 and 50 mile options. � http://www.londoncyclesport.com/news...ng_leaves.html

I'll be at Herne Hill on Saturday. Just look for the heap of crumpled bones at the bottom of the
banking, as I've never ridden a track bike. Or look for the Orange P7.

Might make the Sunday ride - if I get one of the Halfords banana bikes.

Go for it John - riding a track on that banking is *excellent fun*.
